“We are different. But we are united. We must be united, because only then are we strong. We should understand that we have to count only on ourselves. Not to quarrel over the past, but to unite for the future. Ukrainian-speaking and Russian-speaking, regardless of age, gender, religion - we must be one people. Not on posters, not on slogans, but here. In everyone’s heart. We must move forward, build the country together, do the impossible together,” the President noted.

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy signed a decree on marking the Day of Remembrance of the Defenders of Ukraine fallen in the struggle for independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine on August 29. The Head of State announced this during the Independence Day festivities.

Our land is unique, lovely, unbreakable, incredible, amazing, fabulous, wonderful, beautiful. If it was not for our Homeland, humanity might not even know these words. After all, they were invented to describe Ukraine. And today it marks the 28th anniversary of Independence. Over the years we have done the most important thing. We have multiplied them. Preserved independence and freedom. And we preserve it today. Some people do so at the cost of their freedom, and others at the cost of their life.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy thanked for supporting Ukraine and informed of the steps planned to reform the country. “We are a different team. We do not have time at all. Our key tasks are not just to fight corruption, but to overcome it,” the President emphasized.
